How I spent my summer vacation, video edition

It's often times hard to fit a baby in a shopping cart - that head is just too big.
Cars, though? No problem.

Say 'Goodnight,' Swiffer...

You can't fool me - I know there's a box

How I spent my summer vacation

So, can you tell, I'm back at work? This here chronicle of our lives (let's be honest, Zoe's life, because you know that baby book? yeah, still working on it...) took back seat to every other daily occurrence that seemed more important at the time, such as dinner. So, for all of those far-away relatives out there, here is a short chronicle of how we spent our summer vacation.

no, this is not the reason our flight was delayed for 3 hours

We all had a great summer - the heat was bearable until August, which is conveniently when it stopped raining as well. Thankfully, splash parks were readily available. And, we continued to enjoy our rodeo friends - hard to believe they are all starting to turn two.

So, videos in the next post.
